Had the skimmer for a while, turned it on for a while, and seems that the only thing happening is that i have alot of microbubble in the tank.

I placed a filter pad between the middle chamber, where the skimmer is, and the rigth chamber, where the return pump is, to no avail.

Any suggestion, short of turning the skimmer off.

The skimmer is Off right now cause those microbubbes are really annoying

thank you
 
i had this skimmer, and it proved to be completely worthless. Seriously, i dont know why this thing is still on the market. The best i ever got out of it, was some Yellow urine-like water. I ended up keeping the powerhead around for just extra flow... (which is still crap at that!)
sorry bro. One thing you might want to try, is modding it so it can hold some airstones in it.
 
This skimmer is a pile of SH*& ! The best place for it is the trash. I agree,I can not believe its still out on the market. I did the same thing and kepted the little worthless pump for extra flow but still its junk. I found that if you use the elbows,you get micro bubbles.Place the pump directly into the skimmer makes it better.Heck, using the elbows on the pump for better flow makes bubbles.its something to do with the elbows.
 
I was one of the first people to get this skimmer. I preordered it, which I learned never to do until someone else has reviewed a new product that has comeout. This thing is completely worthless and I can't believe it is still out. I would not even use it as a paper weight.
 
allright.....given the replies, the skimmer is out of there......i kept it off anyway...so, big deal!!
It just ****es me off I threw 30 something bucks away!!
 
i too have removed mine b/c i never got anything but urine colored water out of mine. and the microbubbles... oh god the microbubbles.... and i kept the pump for a LITTLE more flow :D
 
Ditto, Ditto, and Ditto. Just a little FYI, the venturi pump can be attached to a betta specimen cup(the kind they sell the betta's in with the indented hole on the lid) w/ some batting and active carbon..and then attach a small dia. pvc spray bar to the output spout. U get a compact chem. fltr with a low flow spray for corals.. And the Body of it can be converted to a feeder ring for frozen cubes.
At least getting some use out of the P O C..........
 
The fission skimmer is worthless at best! ditch it and get the nano remora skimmer by aqua C . I get GREAT skimmmate out of that skimmer on my 15g. Costs more than the fission, but you get what you pay for!
